I am a versatile PHP developer with over 16 years of commercial experience, holding a master's degree in Computer Science and Mathematics from York University. My expertise lies in crafting robust and scalable solutions, particularly in Laravel using APIs, Eloquent ORM, and Vue.js integration. With a solid foundation in PHP, Laravel (v4-10), VueJS (v1-3), Livewire (v1-3), JavaScript, jQuery, Tailwind, Bootstrap, MySQL, SQL, PostgreSQL, HTML/CSS, REST, MVC, and OOP, I have successfully contributed to a variety of projects, ranging from developing proprietary financial systems for venture capital fund management to ensuring GDPR compliance for high-profile websites like Next's cookie consent solution.

My commitment to rigorous testing protocols, security, and compliance, combined with a proactive approach to code reviews, reflects my dedication to maintaining high standards of quality and excellence in every project I undertake. Additionally, my freelance work showcases my ability to create visually appealing websites using WordPress and to spearhead personal projects employing PHP, Laravel, Vue.js, and MySQL, while also leveraging cloud-based solutions for scalability. Overall, I am passionate about creating high-quality, maintainable code and am eager to contribute my skills to modern and progressive environments.
